Husband and Wife Burned to Death.

CHICAGO, March ia special from
Bracebridge, Ont, says: The refresh
ment house of Hugh Dennison was
destroyed by fire yesterday morning.
The fire is supposed to have originated
in Dennison's bedroom, and when dis
covered had made such headway as to
render it impossible to save either the
building or contents. The house was
broken into and every effort made to
reach the inmates, Dennison and his
wife but it was impossible to do so. The
charred remains of Dennison and his
wife were found in different parts OF the
ruins.

ST. LOUIS, March 1G.-Advices from

running very high down there over the
recent tragedy near Sparta in which
Charles Green and William Eden were
called up in the night and shot down in

organization similar to the Ku-Klux.
Every effort is being made to ferret out
the perpetrators of the brutal outrage.
and thirteen persons have already been
arrested and nine more are expected TO
be captured to-day. These people all live in
the Immediate vicinity and are said to
have been engaged in other lawless acts.
Their preliminary examination will be
held in a day or two. They all protest
their innocence.

Lynchers AT Work.

CHARLESTON, w. Va, October 49,
Fully 300 citizens started out yesterday
morning after the robbers who muir
dered Mr.. Ryan near Walton, Roam
County, last Thursday night. The
officers and citizens ran into the rob-
bers, thirteen in number, last night, at
George Duff's residence, eight miles
from Sissonville, this county, and were
warned to keep off by the robbers, who
had taken refuge in the house, fitted
port holes and made other arrange
ments for protection. The murderers
we're fred upon, and George Duff, Jr..
killed. Jake Coon was captured and
lynched. Five of the officers and citizens
in the battle were wounded. The in
formation received is very meagre.
There are about twenty robbers in the
gang, who have been carrying on at q
high rate. NJ. Duff, George Drake and
Frank Shambling are prisoners, and
await the pleasure of the vigilance com
mittee for their disposal. 1t is believed
a full confession will be made and the
whole gang lynched.

What Am I To DoP

The symptoms of Biliousness ara un-
happily but too well known. They
differ in different individuals to some
extent. A Bilious man is seldom a
breakfast eater. Too frequently, alas,
he has an excellent appetite for liquids
but none for solids of a morning. His
tongue will hardly bear inspection at
any time; if it is not white and turred,
it is rough, at all events.
The digestive system is wholly out of
order and Diarrbea or Constipation
alternate. There are often Hemorr-
holds or even loss of blood. There may
be giddiness and often headache and
aciditY or hatulence and tenderness in
the pit of the stomach. To correct all
this if not effect a cure try GREEN'S
August FLOWer; it costs but trif1e and
thousands attest its efficacy.

that the action of the General Assembly
of the Knights of Labor at Minneapolis
in sustaining Powderly in his action
declaring the great Stock Yards strike
off aad ordering the strikers to return

to the movement in district assembly

tions. A leading member of the Barrel
Makers Assembly, Knights of Labor,
expressed an opinion that the barrel

Giles fer the Home Rule Hand Book
which will be issued on Monday, pre-
paratory to the Liberal federation
meeting in Nottingham. Mr.. Glad
stones article is entitled The Lessons
of Irish History" He traces the his
tory of Ireland for the past 700 years
and deals with the necessity during the
present crisis of becoming acquainted
with the true state of the account be-
tween the islands of the United King
dom. Earl Spencer in a preface to the
work, says: "We don't know how Par
lament can safely pass the large land
purchase scheme without establishing
some strong Irish government in Dub
lin to act between the Imperial govern
ment and tenants. He urges that home
rule possesses vitality which will survive
the land question"
LONDON, October 17.-Gladstone ar
rived in Manchester to-day and was

had gathered to welcome him. He will

Tho nublic may be Interested in the results
Of the offer Of the Woman's Educationa'
and Industrial union to learn and report on
the character of advertisements and circu-
lars. promising women work at home ON re-
cepr of money for materials. This offer was
published in all the Boston dailies six months
ago, and it still appears, each paper in turn
giving it one weeks gratuitous Insertion Our
investigation has shown the existence Of =
cruel and widespread fraud, for IN the long
list of parties thus advertising we have not
found one which does the business it adver-
tises though in q few instances a small guam
tity OF work may be given out III order to So
cure witnesses in case OF arrest for fraud,
while the promised materials, IL sent, are not
worth the money demanded for them.
As some check to this evil our "union" has
issued a warning circular 5000 copies of
which were sent for publication to news
papers throughout the country; and has re-
ceived In response numerous postal cards and
over 100 letters of inquiry, chiefly from re-
mote sections Of the country, many OF them
giving sad experiences of disappointment and
loss by the home work fraud. This OF course
is only representative of the vast number
reached by our warning, but at the same
time shows the wide dissemination Of these
plausible promises. We cannot express too
warmly our acknowledgement to the press
for its valuable assistance in this work, which
all must admit to be of vital Importance.

some OF the most eminent physicians o.

turn from their summer rests, whether at the
seaside or inland, with typhoid and maiarial
fevers and diphtheria. There are many such
cases in which the patients are in imminent
peril at present. The origin Of these diseases
Is a mystery even to medical experts, as thoss
who are suffering reside in well severed anu
properly ventilated houses A prominent
surgeon, when asked his opinion OF the cause,
could attribute it to nothing but shutting up
the houses while the residents were absent,
thereby making the interiors damp ana up-
wholesome. Many parents have had the
affection Of losing children, some two or
three, by the fatal epidemic Of diphtheria,
which has never been so prevalent as TINS
